This swap is for one handmade pin cushion. You may sign up for 1 or 2 individual pin cushion swaps.

Sign up closes April 27th.

*Please send a PM to hostess to sign up, and include your board name, your real name and address, and if you can mail international.

Count me in, please! I want to sign up for two pin cushion swaps but only one international.

Note: last time I did an international swap my post office told me that you cannot get a delivery confirmation. But, perhaps I could get a receipt that I sent something... LOL
